A Swiss electronics company by the name of BRUSA just unveiled the Spyder, an electric sports car, at the EVS24 conference in Stavanger, Norway, according to AutoblogGreen. Taking obvious inspiration from a 1970's mid-engined Porsche 914, the Spyder is powered by two 95 kW electric motors, with one attached to each rear wheel. The company claims the Spyder can hit 60 miles per hour in under five seconds--not as fast as a Tesla Roadster, but close.

A 16 kWh lithium polymer battery pack and liquid cooled charger gives the car from 75 to 80 miles of range when traveling at 50 miles per hour, according to the report. A full charge when plugged into a 220v outlet takes four hours. So it's not quite ready for prime time yet, in other words. There's also no word on whether or not BRUSA intends to build the thing in volume. Still cool, though.
